diaphoneme

diaphoneme englanniksi

1. An (l) (l) unit that represents collectively the dialectal variants of a (l).

(ux) or {oː} represents the diaphoneme descended from the ancestral (w) phoneme (IPAchar), which is preserved in (w) as (IPAchar) but has become (IPAchar) in (w) and as (IPAchar) in (w).

2. 1980, S. Noble & Fishman|J.A. Fishman ((l)), M. Weinrich ((l)), P. Glasser ((l)), ''History of the Yiddish Language'' II (2008), (l) vii, (l) 467f.:

The series with the long ''a'' as a point of departure…today has the diaphoneme (IPAchar), and to be exhaustive the diaphoneme should be rendered (IPAchar), for in western Yiddish there are also the articulations /šlaufn/ and /šloifn/ (sleep). From the point of departure of long ''e'' (Early Vowel E₂) Yiddish arrived at the diaphoneme (IPAchar), for example in ''veynik'' (little) (cf. MHG ''wênic''). In ''groys'' (big; Early Vowel O₂) (cf. MHG ''groȥ''), Yiddish has the diaphoneme (IPAchar); with the variant of Samogitia–Latvia (7.35), the symbolization will become still more complicated: (IPAchar).
